New to Tech fino. Question on Lounge access

[seekeerr]

Hello,
I am new to this techfino group. It's amazing forum.


I am travelling internationally with 2 tickets from Canada to India
1st International ticekt: Canada to Bangalore via Frankfurt

at Bangalore with 2nd doemstic ticket, I am travelling from Bengaluru to Visakhapatnam on Indigo flight

I just checked dreamfolks and I see different lounges for different cards

A) Indus card:

Domestic Lounges:
1. BLR Domestic T1 Departure
* Terminal: Domestic
* Location: Airside
2. 080 Domestic T1 Departure
* Terminal: Domestic
* Location: Airside
3. 080 Domestic T2 Departure
* Terminal: Domestic
* Location: Airside
4. Care by BLR Domestic T1 Arrival
* Terminal: Domestic
* Location: Landside
5. 080 International T2 Arrival
* Terminal: International
* Location: Before SHA

If you see, there are 2 terminals types: demestic and international. Which one should I use for accessing lounge for my domestic travel from Bengaluru to Visakhapatnam. also what is difference between lounge 1 to 4 and lounge 5

Also, what is difference between landside, airside, before SHA


B) HDFC credit card

Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru, India
1. BLR Domestic T1 Departure
* Terminal 1, Domestic
* Airside
* Access Now
2. 080 International T2 Departure
* Terminal 2, International
* Airside
If you see, there are 2 terminals types: demestic and international. Which one should I use for accessing lounge for my domestic travel from Bengaluru to Visakhapatnam. also what is difference between lounge 1 and lounge 2


Also, Since I have 2 cards, is to possible to generate QR on 1 card and give to my friend?

If your flight via Frankfurt arrives in T2, check out the arrival lounge in T2, its a new and decent. You can get one meal and soft drinks.
This lounge is landside, don't exit the airport gates, navigate towards the lounge and relax.

If your flight via Frankfurt arrives in T1, check out the arrival lounge in T1, its a useless and offers nothing except coffee/tea/soft drink and some snacks.
This lounge is landside, exit the airport and there is a Care by BLR lounge in front of Chai Point.

These 2 are arrival lounges, the difference is that these are landside and before security check.
I guess all International Flights arrive in T2 and Indigo domestic operates from T1.

For your flight to Visakhapatnam,
After checking in from T1, don't go to the BLR Domestic lounge, go to the 080 Lounge.
If you have cards with multiple lounge access, you can use 2 lounges depending on the length of your layover.

If you only have 2 lounge access, i would suggest the T1 080 Departure lounge and you can give your friend another QR code from your dreamfolks account.

How to generate a qr code for a friend. I tried it last Sunday using my dreamfolks app. Qr generated for chennai travel club lounge, however they denied check in stating that ard holder should be there, as they say the qr code had my name on it...

Few lounge don't care whose name is on the QR code but few do.
I know in Goa Dabolim airport no one cared whose was on their card/QR code but IN BLR airport, they were very strict on checking the name on the card/QR. So it depends on the lounge or the person at the desk to let you in. (even crowd also could be a factor)
